Different for every student and depends on goals. Normally I'd recommend against canceling unless something went horribly wrong.
If you're not totally satisfied with your score, retake, try to do better, and see what you can do differently this time around.
-if your next step is retaking the LSAT ----->
When NOT to retake: When you've given it all you reasonably can. At some point you do have to move on with your life :)
But if you haven't done everything you can - i.e. if there's material/resources you haven't used, now's the time to go nuclear and pull out all the stops!
If you've got 1-2 months, that's is enough time to make a big difference, especially if you're not starting from scratch.
Law schools only get your score out of 180 - they don't get a breakdown like what you posted.
Disclosed vs Undisclosed - Difficulty doesn't change at all - the LSAT is equated, so all tests are the same. And non-disclosed ones eventually become future disclosed ones, so there's not a true distinction in the long-term
LSAC shouldn't have an issue with you retaking the LSAT for financial aid leverage. Many do this without issue, and law schools encourage it. Law schools report the highest score of matriculating applicants. so if you retake it and do better, they'll have reason to reward you. Go for that 180!
